Aug 27, 2014I've been offline for a while.First,I had a small accident(I'm better now) and then my poor computer got a nasty virus that took a lot of shifting.It's good to be back.

Feb 19, 2014I'm afraid I'm in and out of hospital at the moment and not feeling too good.Hope to be better soon and get back to reading your wonderful poetry.

Jan 8, 2014I had my 18 month check up and I am fine for another 6 months.
Hello world,I'm still here!

Nov 26, 2013I've had computer problems and been offline for a few days.Oh my,it's good to be back in touch with the world!

Sep 18, 2013I am beginning to feel really at home here on Booksie,surrounded by friends.So,I have decided to "show" myself with a new avatar.
Yes,that's me,warts and all.

Sep 6, 20126th September
I am halfway through the chemotherapy now.
I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Jun 28, 2012I am home recovering from my mastectomy.
It's early days yet,but I am healing and each day is another day nearer to being well.

Jun 10, 2012I am afraid I have breast cancer.
Not good news,but maybe not so bad either.
There are worse things out there.
I am feeling strong and well right now.
I will get through it and come out rejoicing on the other side of this disease.

May 30, 2012I have a brand new Grandson,Joseph.
He is tiny,bless him,about 2 kilos in weight.I've never seen such a tiny baby.He is gorgeous.

Apr 26, 2012I found Booksie yesterday,am still learning how to use the site.
So please be patient with me.

I joined Booksie and then found out I had cancer last year,so my enjoyment of Booksie waned a bit during my treatment.
